The Space Exploration Technologies Corp. (Space X) and NASA has announced to postpone the return of the Crew Dragon spacecraft (Crew-1) with JAXA Astronaut NOGUCHI Soichi due to the influence of the wind around the splashdown zones, which was planned to occur on May 1, 2021 11:36 (EDT) (May 2, 2021 00:36 JST).

The new return schedule will be announced once it is determined.
